In context
5I tended thee as a shepherd in the wilderness, in an uninhabited land.
6According to their pastures, so they were completely filled; and their hearts were exalted; therefore they forgot me.
— Hosea 13:7 —
8I will meet them by the way of the Assyrians, as a she-bear excited, and I will rend the caul of their heart, and the lions’ whelps of the thicket shall devour them there; the wild beasts of the field shall rend them in pieces.
9O Israel, who will aid thee in thy destruction?
